hi,
I'm trying to use the SIPB installer for Athena linux, but I get the
following message when I try to boot off the floppy:
--
SYSLINUX ... Peter Anvin (?), etc.
BOOT FAILED: Please change disks and press a key to continue
--
I made the boot disk by doing "add linux; linux-install-floppy" from a
linux workstation, and it did something to my disk since windows doesn't
recognize the file system. I tried this on two new Dell's (a dimension
8100 and something else) running windows 2000, and I got the same
message.
Do you have any suggestions?
thanks,
-Bill
